Just wondered, barnabas, if you know of the TV Documentaries that featured Palace players - circa 1976?

I remember there was one about Vince Hilaire - might even have been called 'Vince' and also one that featured Palace youngster Steve Leahy - I think they were on ITV - seem to remember there was a mini-season of football related stories - Saturday's Heroes?

I think Tomorrow's World did a thing about Steve Leahy, but I can't remember what exactly.

hey barnabas . this is a work of art !!! .
one question ; how do you get those links to itn to play . just seems to show a lot of information concerning the clip . especially keen to see wrexham 2 palace 4 . i'm sure its an easy process but its baffled me . thanks .

The ITN Source links listed as Shot lists are just that: documentation of footage that may or may not exist in their archive. The other ITN links should work, however. Is anyone else experiencing a problem?

Like yourself I would love to see the goals from the Wrexham game. The last two are still indelibly etched on my mind but the others I have little memory of. I also recall them being shown on TV, I think on On The Ball or Football Focus the following Saturday.

One day the footage might turn up like the Manchester United away game of 1972/73. I'm pretty sure that was just a shot list when I first came across the website a couple of years ago. Probably prioritised because it's United.

[QUOTE=Ruskin Old Boy;11706997]Watched the highlights of our first league match at Stamford Bridge in August 1969 since the 24/25 season. Jacko had a blinder that day but we looked pretty good going forward with Kember and Hoy.

All I can remember from the day was keeping quiet when Hoy scored. And thinking the ground wasn't as bad as the Old Den but not a patch on Selhurst Park.[/QUOTE

Just watched it and once again realize why John Jackson was by far the greatest keeper the world had ever seen. Sorry Julian, nige. Also showed how poor Per Bartram couldn't hit a barn door. Hoys goal a cracker.

At 9:15 (Derby v Wrexham) there's quite a goal from future Palace centre forward Ian Edwards. He did keep us up in the final match of 82/83 v Burnley but I never remeber him scoring anything as good as that.

Remember that game at Highbury on November 27 1971 so well. As the attached report says John Hughes frightened the life out of Arsenal towards the end of the game. The following week he scored those two super goals v Sheffield United.

I assume everyone knows there is a "Vintage Palace" video - which the club once produced ... From memory it has Chelsea at home -Jim Cannon's debut; Stoke; Shrewsbury; Leeds; and a few others .... The games are probably all on the list already, but if anyone finds one, it might be worth investing in ...!!

Yes, I've got a feeling I had that and transferred it onto DVD. I'll have a look and see if I can find it.
